From the reviews
So I've been searching for a 1/4 violin for my son and it seems like a lot of music stores just don't have inventory. And if they had it, it was for rent only. Well, this store does! And its pretty much a one stop shop.
This is a one stop shop for all your musical instrument needs. It has separate rooms for music lessons. Oh, and the teachers are wonderful and patient. They have a great selection of band instrumental rentals. Very reasonably priced! And they have anything and everything under the sun.
We got into a tricky situation when my daughter’s swab got stuck in her instrument after practicing one evening. After calling several places, I took it to San Diego Music Studio in San Marcos. Not only were the staff and technician amazing and friendly, but they had the instrument fixed it within minutes.
This store CARES!! ...about you. ...about your kid. ...about their school's music program. And they will do everything they can to make your experience the best that they can provide!
Lessons at San Diego Music Studio
Reviews and the store's own info mention lessons at San Diego Music Studio. If you're signing up a beginner (or restarting yourself), a quick call ahead answers the three things that matter: which instruments they teach, whether the schedule has openings at the time you actually need, and what a first lesson costs. There's no wrong first guitar — a good teacher will happily work with whatever you walk in with, and a shop that teaches usually keeps affordable starter instruments and rentals on hand for exactly this reason.
